|  #1 Posted on 7.7.05 1148.12 | Instant Rating: 4.48 | I am running Windows XP post SP2, and have an nVidia GeForce FX 5200, with the latest driver for it off nVidia's website, the monitor is an Envision En-780. My problem is that all the video file playback is really washed out (it looks like one of the Scott brothers directed it ["The scene is tinged blue, it is sad! BE SAD!]).
Now how does one deal with the saturation or whatever else it could be on the video playback?
Other things I am willing to tinker with on my own, but I'd rather not royally screw myself over in the visual settings department.

I have the same Video card, the drivers I have are version 6.1.7.7 from May 2004. I have no problems playing video in WMP or Winamp. | Iago

And any games I am playing don't suffer. Neither does anything else BUT video play back. Cinematics in the game seem to be fine as well.
Admittedly if this is all I can say that's wrong with my comp then I have to be happy because it really isn't important.

Willful ignorance of science is not commendable. Refusing to learn the difference between a credible source and a shill is criminally stupid. |
